Sembcorp unit inks $74m revolving credit facility with DBS Hong Kong

The facility can be extended by two years.

Sembcorp Energy (Shanghai) Holding Co., Ltd. (SESH), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Sembcorp Industries, has inked a dual currency-denominated revolving credit facility (RCF) with DBS Bank (Hong Kong) Limited.

The RCF will provide SESH with access to offshore RMB400m ($74m) or an equivalent amount in Hong Kong Dollars for an initial tenure of three years with a two-year extension option. 

SESH will utilise funds from RCF for general corporate purposes including refinancing, capital expenditure, working capital, equity investments, and funding mergers and acquisitions in China.   

“China is a key market for Sembcorp and the Group continues to see attractive opportunities in the renewables sector. Sembcorp’s existing portfolio of assets in China generates strong operating cash flow, which forms the primary source of capital to meet its growth plans,” Sembcorp said.

“The establishment of this offshore RMB facility enhances the Group’s capital base to fund its growth,” the company added.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
